These tubes are 2.5 meters long, the centre hole is about 35cm and the wall is about 3 cm thick, originally built to hold 1 ton of paper, these will not crush or bend, I have about 100 of them and this grows every day, I can’t find any one to take them away for recycling due to the glue content.

Schools would probably appreciate some, and after school clubs, nurseries etc.
also ask your local council about recycling options - they should be able to suggest what to do if you can't get anyone to re-use them.

Sell them on Ebay for fishing rod protectors. They cost a mint new. Or you could sell them as protection for mailing fragile items like vases if cut into sections. I will keep thinking up ideas and post them once I have a list.

They might be suitable for sound proofing - so would be good for anyone setting up a music studio/rehearsal room.
